"Fragment" Operation
Is there any way to perform a "fragment" operation in inkscape?
Specifically, if you have multiple overlapping shapes, they all cut each other where they cross.
For example, for two overlapping circles, you would end up with two crescents and a lens shape filling the space between.
It is relatively easy to do this for two shapes (Duplicate, and perform an intersection, then on the original perform an exclusion followed by a break apart) but for a larger number of shapes the operations grow exponentially.

Hi Rob,
also I looked for a possibility to apply an bool operation on a group of objects but failed to do so :-(
If you find an answer let me know ;-)

This just needs to be coded, it's not too difficult. Combine and Break apart already support groups, you can borrow that code and use it in other boolops.
